Contrast and Shades from the Pot unless specifically stated thinned down on screen with Contrast or Lahmian Medium. When I do thin any paint down it's on a dry palette. Never a wet palette!

@@Warhipster thank you so much. I really enjoy your painting tutorials and your little jokes that you throw in.

That’s a great question, I would use a 3rd word to describe it as Overused. In the example of these wolves, almost always the paws Belly and the lower legs are a brighter fur colour than the main body of the wolf and often for example in dogs and cats you’ll see white socks or paler hair around the feet, not always but it’s fairly common right? So if you were to zenithal prime here. The lower areas would be darker than the zenithal prime on top. So do you make the top of the wolf darker than the darker lower areas or do you use layer paints to brighten the lower areas. If you use an opaque paint to cover a zenithal prime, in my opinion you wasted your time doing two primer colours at the first time of asking. Every technique has its place but the crucial thing is to not get stuck in a cycle of using the same thing every time if it isn’t necessary especially when approaching something newer or different to what you’ve done before. It’s a bit of a stretch but if you started with Custodes and primed them all gold. You wouldn’t then start say a Sylvaneth army and prime them all gold because it wouldn’t be right for those models!

No unfortunately it does have to be ratling girme 😂
